Guitar Hero 5 Outsells Beatles: Rock Band in UK

Industry Gamers is reporting on Chart Track data that shows Guitar Hero 5 outselling The Beatles: Rock Band in the UK. Chart Track recorded Guitar Hero 5 at the number-one selling spot last week with The Beatles: Rock Band landing in the number four position (surpassed by Batman: Arkham Asylum and Colin McRae: Dirt 2). The top ten list (below) accounts for sales on all platforms.

Tyler says:
While it is surprising that the Beatles' homeland voted with their pounds in favor of Guitar Hero 5, it's more of a shock to see Colin McRae: Dirt 2 surpass the mop-top foursome (I guess I never realized how popular racing games are across the pond). Other WTF moments in the list: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare charts at number eight? I love that game, but damn, it came out almost two years ago!
